Chapter 9 It’s a pity that the children only like Sister Tong

"My husband, I didn't plan to tell you about this. I was afraid that you would beat the children in anger, but I didn't expect to meet my husband on the mountain tonight by such a coincidence."

He finally calmed down, but as Mu Daiyao approached, the sweet fragrance became increasingly difficult for Ji Zhixu to ignore.

"So are you hiding something from me again?"

Ji Zhixu heard the hesitation in Mu Daiyao's tone, and said in a soft voice: "Ms. sir, actually the children are not at home, but don't be angry! I will go outside to find the children now.

Go immediately!"

"Don't go!"

Ji Zhixu subconsciously held Mu Daiyao's shoulders and objected: "It's so late, what are you doing out as a woman?"

"But sir, aren't you worried about the children?"

Mu Daiyao blinked her eyes, raised her eyes to look at Ji Zhixu in front of her, and asked.

The heat on her shoulders spread to her hands through the thin clothes, making Ji Zhixu's Adam's apple move involuntarily.

Ji Zhixu suddenly realized what he had done, and immediately retracted his hand as if he had been burned.

"Ms. sir?"

Seeing that Ji Zhixu was silent, Mu Daiyao called out curiously.

The little lady in front of her bit her lips innocently like a deer, which made Ji Zhixu feel confused for a while.

Ji Zhixu finally calmed down and said in a calm tone: "Do you know why they are not at home so late and where they went? If you don't know, where are you going to find them in the middle of the night?"

"I guess she may have followed Sister Tong," Mu Daiyao pursed her lips and whispered cautiously: "After all, Sister Tong is very good to the children, and the children also like to follow her every day."

Before he could say anything, he heard the little lady in his arms continue to speculate: "But sir, do you think Xiu Ping and the others were teased by their classmates today, so they would rather follow Sister Tong so late?"

, don’t even want to go home?”

"No matter what, it is disrespectful to do so."

Hearing this, Ji Zhixu frowned and said coldly: "What's more, following her as an unmarried woman to her home, isn't it because there wasn't enough gossip in the village in the past?"

It turns out that during these days when he was away from home, the grievances he suffered as a young lady were actually related to his children.

Thinking of this, Ji Zhixu felt even more inexplicably angry.

"Squeak."

At this moment, the courtyard door was pushed open from the outside, and at the same time, the sounds of Ji Xiukai and Ji Xiuyun's laughter and quarrels were heard, mixed in with Ruan Hantong's deliberately high-pitched questioning voice.

"Oh, why is it so dark in the yard? Sister Yao doesn't even leave a light for you, and she's not afraid of you guys bumping into each other."

Ji Xiuping raised his eyebrows and thought, huh, that woman must have been bitten by snakes long ago with bruises all over her body. She doesn't know where she is lying now and is in pain. How can she get up and light a lamp?

But he didn't want to say it out loud, so he replied in a sanctimonious manner: "Sister Tong, my mother may have already fallen asleep, so let's not disturb her."

"Fortunately, I also brought a lantern. Everyone, please watch the road carefully."

"Sister Tong, you are so kind. It would be great if you were our stepmother."

Hearing this, Ruan Hantong felt happy. She wished that the impression of Mu Daiyao on the little brats would get worse and worse, so that she could have the chance to become their stepmother.

"That's right, Daddy should be with you, Sister Tong!"

Ji Xiukai and Ji Xiuyun said in unison.

Although Ji Xiujing and Ji Letong did not speak, they silently agreed and nodded.

Ji Zhixu, who heard everything clearly in the room, couldn't help but frown deeper. With everything that happened tonight, he began to doubt the children's usual complaints.

The little lady in his arms was the one he married back then, and the children seemed to be in harmony with her at that time, but what he heard now was completely different.

Mu Daiyao could clearly feel that the man in front of her was getting more and more unhappy. She raised her eyebrows and felt secretly happy in her heart.

"Oh, Mr. Tong, Sister Tong has sent the children back. I'll go out and pick them up quickly. It's dark outside and I forgot to light the lamp just now."

"I'll go too. It just so happens that I also have questions to ask these little brats."

Ji Zhixu's tone was cold, and there was still a little bit of uncontrollable anger. He just wanted to ask the matter clearly now, lest the family would be in trouble if he wasn't at home!

Mu Daiyao quickly shook her head. She gently held Ji Zhixu's arm to prevent him from moving, and gave a gentle persuasion.

"Ms. sir, you should wait inside the house, otherwise if you go out and bump into Sister Tong, it will be bad for Sister Tong's reputation if word spreads about it in the middle of the night."

What's more, if you really go out, how will the next drama unfold?

Mu Daiyao said something in her mind, but there was no expression on her face.

"Then wait until Miss Ruan leaves, then I'll go out."

This made sense. Ji Zhixu originally wanted to avoid suspicion, so he suppressed his anger for the time being and nodded in agreement.

Seeing that Mu Daiyao had persuaded the man, she did not immediately turn around and walk into the yard. Instead, she walked to the door of the room and stopped, lowered her head, turned around and said with a little grievance.

"My husband, you know, I actually envy Sister Tong. The children all like to be with her. If I could do this, my husband, would you be happier?"

As soon as the words fell, Mu Daiyao immediately turned around and ran out of the room without giving Ji Zhixu a chance to react.

In Ji Zhixu's eyes, this scene was like a delicate little lady like herself who had been wronged by outsiders but did not dare to tell her openly, so she could only secretly complain to herself in this way.

Ji Zhixu couldn't help but squinted his eyes and felt his heart move slightly. For a moment, he didn't know where the slight soreness in his heart came from.

However, what Ji Zhixu didn't know was that the moment her back was turned to him, the aggrieved look on Mu Daiyao's face instantly turned into a smile of success.

The system was a little dumbfounded. After all, it had never seen any host behave in such a shameless manner: "Host, is your behavior a little strange?"

"Something? Some wit?"

Mu Daiyao raised her eyebrows and said proudly in her heart, "You don't need to praise me so much. This is just a routine operation. You will get used to it in the future."

Routine operation? Do you need to get used to it?

The system stuttered in disbelief: "Does the host mean that this behavior will continue to happen in the future?"

"Of course," Mu Daiyao replied with some disdain, and even deliberately emphasized her tone: "You'd better get used to my way of educating children as soon as possible!"
